Next, the candidates had a chance to ask each other questions. Up first was Jim Webb and his question to Allen was on congressional pay raises and the minimum wage. Allen’s answer hinted that Congress might take this issue up again before November and that a raise in the minimum wage would have to be coupled with help for small businesses.
George Allen then questioned Webb on whether he would support increases in Health Savings Accounts, medical liability reform and should small businesses be allowed to form associations to buy health insurance at a discount. Webb didn’t answer and instead talked about the problem of high medical costs. Webb did state he thought the Massachusetts plan seemed to make the most sense to him. Again, Democrat Jim Webb praising Republican Mitt Romney.
The Jim Webb is not a Democrat theme continues…
